"I love this series! It's light-hearted: murder + baked goods = enjoyableness. I bought the next book in the series immediately after I finished reading this one. I'm excited that there are so many and I can't wait to see which suitor Hannah chooses - or if she chooses anyone!"

    " Earlier this year, I've read the first book in the Hannah Swensen cozy series. Now I've recently read the next installment. In this book, Hannah's in charge of a bake-off contest as one of the judges, when she gets involved into the next murder, just weeks after she helped solve the first one. Still in winter, Boyd Watson's is found dead. And everyone is a suspect, including his wife Danielle. When Lucy Richards sneaks around for the scoop, she becomes suspicious and becomes missing days later. That's when Hannah discovers her blackmail scheme before she finds Lucy dead. It's up to Hannah to connect the dots before she becomes the next victim. Plus, she's still in the middle of a love triangle between Norman and Mike. As always, it includes yummy recipes. I'll be reading the third book next month. "

    " Better than the last one I read, but with fewer recipes. I'll keep reading for the recipes, the stories are only okay. "

    " A nice, solid cozy, less fluffy and silly than most. Again, Hannah's reason for getting involved made more sense than in many cozy mysteries; she was trying to protect her friend from being railroaded. Hannah and her sister, Andrea, make a good investigating team. They screw up all of the evidence, of course, but manage to get enough to catch the villain so all's well that ends well. "

    " Good follow-up to first book. A bake-off has come to Lake Eden and Hannah is one of the judges... It kept me guessing to the end who was responsible for the deaths in this book. "

    " Quite charming. A cozy mystery about a cookie shop owner. Nicely fleshed out characters. Not a bad plot line. I did figure out the killer near the end, but that's OK. This book was what I needed to get back on track. I felt like I was just stuck reading all these "great american novels". I liked this better than the Diane Mott Davidson books I read (only two). I think I identified with the heroine/protagonist better. Enjoyable. "

    " Again, the story was really cute. There's a few Stephanie Plum like moments, but in reality Hannah is her own character and doesn't get into the same unbelievable situations as Plum. I really enjoyed reading the story. It's a nice light, stress-free read. "

    " Very sweet; somewhat unpredictable and I like the way the relationships between Hanna and her sister and Hanna and Lisa are unfolding. The Norman/Mike thing is already getting on my nerves, though! "
